Redford Ford

Highlight • Bridge

Rideable if you choose the right line as it is rocky. The alternative is a little footbridge to the side if you don't fancy risking wet feet.

Heaven's Gate Sculpture, Longleat

Highlight • Structure

This is a great meeting spot right at the top of Windhill Bike Park. Follow the fireroad down the hill to the right of the road (if coming into Longleat) and the park is on your left.

Gordon's MTB Trail

'Gordon's' is best ridden after a dry spell, currently running sweet before popping out in the Windhill Car Park.

Lovely pub and guest house at the top of Longleat Safari Park. Great area to sit outside and get a drink or snack. They also have a garden in the back with more seating.

Longleat House Drive

Highlight • Historical Site

Fast, straight road leading up to Longleat House. Great cycling through the grounds, its par of the national cycle route so you can always have access on a bike. If you are lucky you can often see some of the animals including giraffes, hippos, and kangaroos.
